In 1755, Shubal Stearns led a wave of Baptist revival that began in Sandy Creek, and washed up over the mountains into the south. The planting of Baptist churches caused Royal unrest and increased persecution upon the growing Baptist population. State religion and the heavy tax burden both fed the flames beneath the simmering colonial Uprising. The Regulators, consisting mostly of colonial farmers, formed to protest against the rampant tax extortion and persecution of the citizens. Based on true events, "The Over-Mountain Men" is a moving action drama depicting not only the Patriot spirit which formed the independence of our nation, but also the strong influence of Baptist Churches upon our Liberty.

We watched this last night. What a good movie! I would highly recommend it to everyone. Begin with the first movie that the church made: As with Roses. This series of movies shows the intertwining of American history and the Baptists.

I will get them all. It appears to be a time when men of God had the will to STAND for God's word and the church.

Exactly, Dave. And we have reaped the blessings of religious, personal, and political liberty ever since. Those liberties are eroding very quickly now (the groundwork having been laid specifically by FDR and onward, but a couple of earlier POTUS' sure infected it), and if we don't do something, our country is lost (this morning's SCOTUS ruling being case in point).

The next movie is in pre-production, and I cannot wait to get it. There is something in these films for everyone!
